Chapter 140: Huang Ying Submits

Seeing that Wuming and Huang Ying were both severely injured, Tie Kuangtu prepared to strike, intending to reap the benefits of their conflict.

Just as he was about to descend from the tree and make his move, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching from behind, thanks to the heightened hearing granted by his Heavenly Tribulation Battle Armor, and he felt compelled to hide back in the tree.

Soon, the figures of two people appeared within Tie Kuangtu's line of sight.

One of these two had steady breathing and firm, powerful footsteps, clearly an expert in external martial arts; the other carried dual blades on his back, his entire being radiating sharpness, clearly a master of weaponry.

However, Tie Kuangtu had not traveled much in the Jianghu, so he found the faces of these two men very unfamiliar and did not know their identities.

The two people who appeared on this grassland were none other than Pojun and Shenjiang.

After Huang Ying arrived in Zhongyuan, his movements had been tracked by the people of the Divine Official.

There was no helping it; in Di Shitian's Seven Weapons Slay Dragon plan, the Jingji Blade from Eastern Japan was also indispensable.

In the process of tracking Huang Ying, they had unexpectedly discovered the whereabouts of Wuming, whom they had been searching for for so long.

Consequently, Di Shitian made a prompt decision, dispatching Pojun and Shenjiang to wait for an opportunity to bring Huang Ying and Wuming back.

Pojun and Shenjiang also wanted to reap the benefits, waiting until Huang Ying and Wuming had both been severely injured before coming out to clean up the mess.

The two of them walked up to Huang Ying and Wuming with the smug look of villains who had gotten their way and said:

"Haha, the dignified Martial Arts Myth and the number one swordsman of Dongying have actually fallen to this state.

Today, my master, Di Shitian, invites you both to be guests at Heaven Gate; please, sirs!"

Wuming looked at Pojun and Shenjiang, wanting to resist, but burdened by heavy injuries, he was no match for the two of them and was easily captured.

And Huang Ying, having lost his Jingji Blade and exhausted his Internal Energy, naturally could not escape this fate either.

Pojun and his companion captured the Martial Arts Myth and the number one swordsman of Dongying without the slightest effort.

As the two of them took Wuming and Huang Ying back to Heaven Gate, they did not forget Di Shitian's instructions:

"You must bring the Jingji Blade back to me; even if it is broken, I must see it."

After Pojun and Shenjiang left with Wuming and Huang Ying, Tie Kuangtu waited until he was certain it was safe before jumping down from the tree.

Having watched the battle between Wuming and Huang Ying, Tie Kuangtu knew deep down that his desire to reach the pinnacle now was still wishful thinking.

Tie Kuangtu thought to himself:

"Since I have already arrived in Zhongyuan, it is time to settle the old scores with the Three Gangs and Seven Strongholds from back then.

Now it is time to go find that force I left behind all those years ago, haha."

The forest echoed with Tie Kuangtu's wild laughter, and in the midst of this terrifying sound, birds and beasts were all startled.

Meanwhile, Shenjiang and Pojun had already returned to Heaven Gate, bringing Wuming and Huang Ying before Di Shitian.

Di Shitian said to the two of them:

"Welcome to my domain. This seat is called Di Shitian, the omnipotent God!"

Di Shitian looked at Wuming, observing the most outstanding Bloodline among his descendants, and let out a sinister laugh.

To prevent Wuming from disrupting his dragon-slaying plan, and out of recognition for his own Bloodline, he walked coldly in front of Wuming.

"Wuming, you have been the Martial Arts Myth for long enough; it is time for you to have a good rest."

Having said this, Di Shitian extended his right hand and grabbed Wuming's head with a claw.

Wuming felt a wave of suction coming from Di Shitian's hand, and his True Qi was flowing away continuously.

After Wuming's True Qi had completely drained away, Di Shitian withdrew his palm.

But looking at the sickly Wuming, Di Shitian immediately patted him with a palm, healing his internal injuries.

Then Di Shitian tapped a finger down, and Wuming collapsed to the ground with a clatter.

Di Shitian's finger just now, straight

severed the meridians in Wuming's legs, and Wuming was reduced to a cripple.

"Shenmu, take Wuming up and lock him in the Bingshi; do not mistreat him."

Di Shitian instructed Shenmu.

"Yes."

After Shenmu agreed, she had people take Wuming away.

After Wuming was taken away, Di Shitian stared at Huang Ying and laughed:

"Huang Ying, the number one swordsman of Dongying!

Now that you have lost the Jingji Blade, are you still worthy of this title?"

Huang Ying looked unconvinced and said:

"Hiding your head and showing your tail, what kind of hero is that?

If I were not severely injured and the Fearless Blade broken, I would definitely have cut your group of despicable wretches down with my blade."

Di Shitian laughed loudly after hearing this:

"Good, since you have this confidence, this seat will grant your wish today."

Di Shitian clapped his hands, and immediately, his subordinates presented the intact Fearless Blade.

As the Fearless Blade was one of the indispensable weapons in Di Shitian's Seven Weapons Slay Dragon plan, how could Di Shitian sit idly by and watch it remain broken?

After Shenjiang and Pojun returned, Di Shitian immediately found someone to have the Fearless Blade reforged.

Di Shitian tapped his finger lightly, sending the Fearless Blade to Huang Ying.

Then he used the Sacred Heart Art to heal Huang Ying's injuries.

Huang Ying said:

"You helped me reforge the Fearless Blade and recover my True Qi; are you not afraid that I will defeat you all and then escape?"

Di Shitian laughed:

"Since this seat dared to help you reforge the Fearless Blade and assist you in recovering your True Qi, this seat has the confidence to defeat you."

"Huang Ying, make your move; let this seat see the prowess of Dongying's number one blade master."

Huang Ying picked up the Fearless Blade, felt the waves of battle intent emanating from it, and with his battle intent soaring, he charged directly at Di Shitian, brandishing the Fearless Blade.

Yet reality doused Huang Ying with a giant bucket of cold water; Di Shitian caught his attack with a light flick of a finger.

Huang Ying stared at the blade in his hand in disbelief; Di Shitian had actually caught it so nonchalantly.

No, this cannot be real!

Unwilling to believe it, Huang Ying attacked Di Shitian again, but Di Shitian gave him another sharp, sobering blow.

Di Shitian once again nonchalantly defended against his attack, then with just a light palm strike, sent him retreating step by step.

Di Shitian laughed:

"Huang Ying, now you know the gap between you and this seat.

This seat asks you, are you willing to submit?

If you are willing to submit to this seat, this seat will help you achieve a Breakthrough to a new martial arts realm.

If you do not submit to this seat, then you shall share the same fate as Wuming.

Huang Ying, tell this seat what your choice is?"

"I am willing to submit to you, but just as you said, you must help me achieve a Breakthrough to a new martial arts realm."

Huang Ying spoke.

"Good, this seat keeps his word."

Di Shitian laughed heartily.

After receiving Di Shitian's promise, Huang Ying lowered his proud head.

Huang Ying's submission this time was not out of fear of death.

He submitted to Di Shitian mainly because Di Shitian's strength had stirred up his overflowing battle intent; he wanted to take Di Shitian as his target and catch up to him.

The second reason was that Di Shitian promised to help him achieve a Breakthrough to a new martial arts realm, which was something he, a martial arts fanatic who had been stuck at his current realm for too long, simply could not refuse.

Di Shitian laughed heartily as he watched Huang Ying submit just like that.

The Seven Weapons Slay Dragon plan's

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The seven great divine weapons have already gathered the Fearless Blade, Greedy Wolf, and Heavenly Blade.

I have already gathered three weapons, and adding Bu Jingyun's Peerless Sword, Nie Feng's Snow Drink Blade, and Wuming's Hero Sword, this seat has already found six divine weapons.

It is a pity that the Fire Scale Sword and Jue Sword were ruined by that spendthrift Duan Fengyun, otherwise this seat would have found all seven divine weapons long ago.

Now one is still missing; which weapon would be suitable to find?

Di Shitian, who always claimed to know everything and understand everything, also fell into a brief moment of confusion.

This confusion will likely have to wait until Huaikong comes knocking to be resolved.

If Di Shitian knew that the sword in Duan Fengyun's hand was even more powerful than the Fire Scale Sword and Jue Sword, he probably would have come knocking long ago.

While Di Shitian was lost in confusion, the three Huaikong brothers had already arrived in Zhongyuan again.

Huaikong ignored Huaimie and Bai Ling and walked forward alone.

He wanted to find Heaven's Gate and beg Di Shitian to teach him the Iron Hand.

Huaimie and Bai Ling followed closely behind, worried that Huaikong, in his eagerness for revenge, would do something foolish.

Not long after the three of them landed, Duan Fengyun and his group finally returned to Zhongyuan.

Breathing in the air of Zhongyuan in deep gulps, the first thing the starving group did was, of course, to find a place to eat.

After finding a small shop that satisfied everyone's tastes and waiting for the wine and food to be served, the five of them began to feast.

Little did they know that in another corner, a pair of eyes filled with hatred and killing intent was staring fixedly at the five of them.

These eyes filled with hatred and killing intent belonged to a young man.

After Duan Fengyun and his group finished their meal and left, the man also quickly paid the bill and left.

The man muttered to himself:

"Qin Shuang, Bu Jingyun, Nie Feng, Duan Fengyun, I have finally found you.

I will definitely kill you all to avenge my father and uncles."

After muttering this, he then hurried in the direction Duan Fengyun had left.

Being clever, he also knew he could not follow too closely, otherwise, with the strength of the people in front, they would definitely discover him.

That night, Duan Fengyun and his group stayed at an inn, and after a while, he also checked into the inn.

Moreover, he lied to the innkeeper, claiming to be a friend of Duan Fengyun and his group, wanting to give them a surprise, and asked the innkeeper to arrange a room close to theirs.

The unsuspecting innkeeper arranged his room opposite the rooms of Duan Fengyun and the others.

Led by the waiter, the man arrived at his room and quickly closed the door.

Seeing through the crack in the door that there was no movement in the room of Duan Fengyun and the others, the man turned around and sat down.

The man then opened his luggage, and inside the luggage were actually four spirit tablets and an incense burner.

The four spirit tablets were inscribed respectively:

"The seat of my late father, Beiye Xiongshi; the seat of my uncle, Dongyue Buqun; the seat of my uncle, Nanluan Zhuge; the seat of my uncle, Xiling Xiaofo."

The unified signature on the spirit tablets was one name: Tieshinan.

It turned out that this man was none other than Beiye Xiongshi's only son, Tieshinan.

After the four of them, Beiye Xiongshi, went missing, he had been searching for their whereabouts.

Finally, under Di Shitian's deliberate instruction, he learned that his father and uncles had all been killed by Duan Fengyun and his group.

His father and uncles had no past grievances or recent enmity with Duan Fengyun and his group.

He simply could not tolerate his father and uncles' bodies not yet cold while these four murderers were still roaming the Human Realm.

After learning that the culprits were Duan Fengyun and his group, he had been trying his best to find Duan Fengyun and his group.

Unexpectedly, he had planted a willow without intent, yet it grew into shade; he had actually found them here.
